I am now, after more than 5 decades in the work force, officially semi-retired. New hobby: gardening. Old hobby restarting: table tennis. I still have some classes to teach and materials to design, many of which I will continue to share with the dear members of ESLPs. You may come across my materials on Facebook and my blog.

a, an, the: color and B & W
The Japanese language doesn�t use articles, so even advanced speakers have difficulty with them. Actually I think my young learners did better than some of my adult students with this one. An answer key (as if you need one) is included as well as some ideas for teaching articles.

Plural es Loopcards
To make, print out onto thick paper or thin card, laminate, trim the edges, cut the vertical center lines, then all the horizontal lines, round the corners and this will give you 36 domino cards.

Capital Track C in full color, black and white and blank.
This upper case C has a different vocabulary set from the lower case letter. I will make some more over the next week or so. For some letters it will be difficult or even impossible to come up with new vocabulary. Maybe I need a brainwave for these ones. Suggestions on how to use the worksheet and a key can be found inside.

If we play in the Christmas party then they get chocolates for points. If you have any questions about the game please...
